Objective To compare early enteral with parenteral nutrional support in patients after hepatectomy. Methods In this study, 59 patients were randomized into 2 groups to respectively receive enteral or parenteral nutritional support beginning the first day post-op for a week. The general nutrition condition, liver function, gut function, dosage of albumin, mortality, complication rate and expense were recorded. Results Patients were given same quantity of heat and nitrogen. At the end of the study, serum albumin, body weight and upper arm circumference had not reached the preoperative level in patients receiving enteral mutrition while all except for serum prealbumin had not reached the level in parenterally nutritional patients. Furthermore, the time of gut begins functional (29?12) h in enterally nutritional patients was shorter than in parenterally nutritional patients (38?14) h. Enteral nutrition was more economic than parenteral nutrition (P

ObjectiveTo investigate the role of electroencephalogram (EEG) examination in the prognosis evaluation of patients with severe craniocerebral injury.MethodsFifty-seven patients with severe craniocerebral injury were selected as study subjects and their clinical data were analyzed retrospectively.All the patients got EEG examination,and the relationships between EEG grading and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) score,the prognosis of outcome were analyzed.ResultsThe EEG of 57 patients within 24 h after hospitalization were all abnormal.There was significantly negative correlation between EEG grading and GCS score (r =-0.742,P ＜0.05).EEG grading was significantly positively correlated with the prognosis of outcome (r =0.730,P＜ 0.05).ConclusionsEEG examination and EEG grading can evaluate the prognosis of patients with severe craniocerebral injury.It provides reference for clinical treatments.

Objective To explore the risk factors of hyponatremia in postoperative patients with aneurysm and analyze the clinical characterstics in order to provide reference for clinic.Methods Participants included 120 patients who treated by aneurysm occlusion.Detailed recorded the patient's history and basic information.The patients with hyponatremia were in case group,and other patients were in control group.The risk factors of hyponatremia were analyzed.Results Forty-five patients (37.5％) occurred hyponatremia after operation.The level of natrium was (125.2 ± 10.1) mmol/L,the average time of appear hyponatremia was (8.2 ± 0.8) d,15 patients were in the first peak(postoperative 1-3 d),25 patients were in the second peak (postoperative 8-9 d),5 patients occurred hyponatremia at other time.Thirty-nine patients were internal carotid artery aneurysms,6 patients were vertebrobasilar artery aneurysms.Single factor analysis showed that the age,preoperative GCS scores,history of hypertension and diabetes,emergency operation,the size of arterial aneurysms,medium-sized aneurysm of artery between two groups had significant difference [(48.7 ± 8.4) years vs.(54.7 ± 8.4) years,(14.4 ± 3.1) scores vs.(10.3 ± 3.4)scores,26.7％ (20/75) vs.60.0％ (27/45),33.3％ (25/75) vs.62.2％ (28/45),32.0％ (24/75) vs.62.2％(28/45),(0.9 ±0.3) cm vs.(1.4 ±0.4) cm,24.0％(18/75) vs.42.2％(19/45),P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05].Multifactors regression analysis showed that preoperative GCS scores,emergency operation were the independent risk factors of hyponatremia (P＜ 0.05).Conclusions Postoperative 1-3 d and 8-9 d are the peak stage of hyponatremia.Different treatment should be adopted according the peak stage.Lower scores of preoperative GCS and emergency operation are the independent risk factors of hyponatremia.Clinical work need to pay more attention to the risk factors,appropriate treatment and prevention.

It is extremely necessary and important for colleges or universities to transform the education concepts that barricade students' initiative and creativity, especially the one that takes fi-nal examinations as sole standard to evaluate teaching and learning effects. In order to display and cultivate students' study ability more comprehensively, we manage to establish a set of formative eval-uation system for regional anatomy course , which involves tests and examinations and evaluations throughout the whole teaching and learning process. It solves the long-lasting problem that examina-tions are final purposes of teaching and learning, and thus, teaching values not only results but also learning process, which directs students' attention to conventional studies and helps develop good study habits, greatly reducing the randomness of final academic performances. The diverse assessment methods, along with accumulated assessment results, can improve students' learning effects through-out the whole semester. The fundamental purpose of this system is to inspire students' passion for study and creativity and monitor the teaching process.
